Chantal Kreviazuk production discography
Canadian singer-songwriter, producer and pianist Chantal Kreviazuk has written, produced and performed on albums and tracks for a wide range recording artists, spanning from adult contemporary, pop, rock, to indie and hip-hop music. Initially, she began writing her own pop songs, especially after a 1994 motorcycle accident in Italy left her immobile for several months, and was signed by Sony Canada, where she released her debut album in June 1997. Chantal later released another album in 1999, before being featured in a range of soundtracks to films and TV series.[1] Chantal began writing for other artists in 2001, where she co-wrote the song "Always and Forever" for Eleanor McCain. However, it was only in 2004 that Chantal started writing for more artists and received recognition as a songwriter. In the summer of 2003, Chantal met Canadian singer-songwriter Avril Lavigne, they formed a relationship of mutual respect and sisterhood, and eventually became songwriting partners. They co-wrote six songs for Lavigne's sophomore album, Under My Skin (2004): "Slipped Away," "Forgotten," "Together," "How Does It Feel," "He Wasn't" and "Who Knows."[2] Kreviazuk described "He Wasn't" as "a super-fun, punk, screw-you-to-boys song," while "Forgotten" is a driving rock song inspired by similarly vibed music Lavigne was consumed with at the time.[2] Also in 2004, Chantal co-wrote "Rich Girl", for Gwen Stefani's solo debut album, "Love. Angel. Music. Baby.", along with Dr. Dre, Jerry Bock, Mark Batson, Kara DioGuardi, Mike Elizondo, Sheldon Harnick and Eve.[3] The song became a chart success, reaching the top-ten in over fifteen countries.[4] Chantal also wrote for Kelly Clarkson's breakthrough album "Breakaway" in the end of 2004, sharing writing credits for the tracks "Where is Your Heart" and "Walk Away".[5] In 2005, Chantal's co-writing song "He Wasn't" was released as Lavigne's final single from "Under My Skin", receiving a moderate impact on the charts and reaching only the top-forty in some countries.[6] While in 2006, Clarkson's "Walk Away" was released as "Breakaway"'s final single, reaching the top-twenty in some countries.[7]
In 2005, Chantal wrote the song "13 Days" with Marion Raven and Raine Maida for Raven's debut album "Here I Am". Later, the song also appeared on Raven's "Heads Will Roll EP" (2006) and on her U.S. debut album "Set Me Free" (2007).[8] In 2006, Kreviazuk contiuned to co-write songs for artists with her husband Raine Maida, including The Veronicas' "Revolution" (a top-twenty hit),[9] Canadian Idol winner Eva Avila's debut single "Meant to Fly" (a number-one hit in Canada) and others. Chantal also co-wrote songs for her husband, including Maida's debut album "The Hunters Lullaby", (2007)[10] while also writing for famous artists, such as Mandy Moore for her fifth studio album "Wild Hope" (2007), on the track "Gardenia",[11] and Kelly Clarkson's third studio album "My December" (2007), on the track "One Minute",[12] which became a top-forty hit in Australia.[13] In 2008, Kreviazuk wrote for American Idol winner David Cook's debut album, co-writing a track called "Permanent",[14] which became a success in Canada and the U.S.[15] In 2009, Chantal co-wrote a country-rock song for Carrie Underwood's third studio album "Play On", called "Unapologize",[16] while in 2010 she co-wrote for Esmée Denters, Joe Cocker and others. In 2011, Chantal co-wrote, co-produced and also provided additional vocals for Drake's track "Over My Dead Body",[17] while also co-writing "Wonder Woman" for Japanese R&B singer Namie Amuro.[18]
Chantal was also among the ten writers on Pitbull's track "Feel This Moment", for his seventh studio album, Global Warming (2012).[19] Released in 2013, "Feel This Moment" was a worldwide success, reaching the top-ten in over seventeen countries.[20] In 2014, Kreviazuk co-wrote "No Miracles" for American rapper Kid Ink's second studio album, "My Own Lane",[21] while also co-writing "Born to Run" for the debut studio album by Dutch DJ Afrojack.[22] She also returned to write for famous female singers, such as Shakira's "You Don't Care About Me" (with Nasri and Adam Messinger), for her eponymous album,[23] Lea Michelle's "Burn with You", for her debut album "Louder",[24] and Jennifer Lopez's "Emotions" (with Lopez, Chris Brown, Shama Joseph and Cory Rooney), for her eighth studio album "A.K.A..[25]
